(I wasn't going to bother replying again, but I just couldn't resist!)

So your assertion is that the downfall of our society will be
predecessed by someone making a mistake posting to a mailing list:

"It becomes a free for all, where the only thing that actually gets
criticised[sic] are those who dare to point out that you did
the wrong thing.  To paraphrase someone else, anyone who behaves like
that deserves the society that they'll eventually get."

Please...either get a grip or get out of the basement every now and
then!

My original point was absolutely correct: That sort of treatment will
drive away new, inexperienced users.  Of course if your intent is to
keep this group a "private key club" then you're well on you're way.
